    Keep in mind, if you get a traction lock 8.8 rear (posi is a GM term *shudder* ;) ) out of a later model car, the differential might be old and worn enough that you'll still be a one-legger. It'd be a good idea to also get a rebuild kit (or a different differential altogether) for the diff and get that done before you put the rear under the car.

    I've got an 8.8 out of a 90 or 91 (can't remember), and I need to rebuild the traction lock.

    Rears are best gotten locally as shipping would kill ya.
